rst.pm disallows raw HTML input. (It's meant as a security feature.)
IkiWiki generates HTML in rst files pretty much all the time. As
such, we should enable raw HTML support. --Ethan

Does the Perl version of this plugin still exist? There appears to be no "rst.pm" in the current distribution; all there is is the python version. --Peter

I am sorry, but I am confused. Does this mean that I can use Ikiwiki
features that translate to HTML in rst files? For example, when I use a
\[[pagename]]-style link in a rst file, the page generated by Ikiwiki's rst
plugin says <a href="./../pagename/">pagename</a> as text. The link
is expanded correctly, but the result isn't interpreted as HTML. Is that
what is supposed to happen? --Peter
